Chapter 16: I'm On Your Side

Ulrich was on the school roof watching the clouds.

"Man… I should have known confronting her would be a pain." Said Ulrich.

(Flashback)

Ulrich was leaning against a window frame in the hallway. When Yuki (after being scolded for 10 minutes and 34 seconds) walked towards him. She stopped… and well there was a kind of awkward silence.

"You know I'm on your side don't you?" asked Ulrich.

Yuki nodded.

Ulrich sighed… "Please go about your day." He said.

(End of Flashback)

Ulrich smirked… the S.O.S. Brigade was divided on him, Kyon was unsure, Haruhi wanted him to be on her side, Itsuki was aggressive, Mikuru was confused and Yuki knew the truth.

"Well… next time their attacked I'll help them." Said Ulrich.

He got up and took out a pair binoculars he had, he looked though them.

"So they're here as well…" said Ulrich, "Interesting…"

Back in the club room things had calmed down… Haruhi stopped hugging her brother from another life and it was up to Kyon to introductions.

"Why me…" muttered Kyon.

He cleared his throat and began to began to introduce the Soul Reapers to the two Brigades.

"This is Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya of the 10th Division" said Kyon.

Toshiro gave a nod.

"Lieutenant Rangiku Matsumoto, all of the 10 Division." Said Kyon.

Rangiku gave a smile.

"Sora Inoue, Lieutenant of the 6th Division." Said Kyon.

Sora too gave a smile.

"Hanataro Yamada, 3rd Seat of the 4th Division." Said Kyon.

Hanataro laughed nervously… he still want used to being the 3rd seat.

"And Cue Ball and Feather Face! They're my underlings in the 11th Division." Said Yachiru taking over the introductions.

"Shut up Yachiru! Don't call us that!" yelled Ikkaku.

"What "Cue Ball" or my underlings?" asked Yachiru.

"Why you!" yelled Ikkaku.

"He's Ikkaku Madarame and I am Yumichika Ayasegawa." Saud Yumichika taking over.

"Maybe it would be if we just kipped at ahead." Said Yuri.

"Yes… I have to agree on that." Said Toshiro with a heavy sigh.

After some quick introductions of the S.O.S. Brigade and the Back Up Brigade. It was time to discus what was going on.

"Much like in the first winter war. There might be a need for a team." Said Toshiro.

"So you're all going to stay here?" asked Mikuru.

"That's right." Said Rangiku.

"Let's discus that later." Said Yuri.

"So what should be our plan… everyone knows what we're dealing with." Said Kyon.

Before anyone could answer the phones began to ring a lot.

Toshiro was the one that checked.

"How many?" asked Haruhi?

"5." Said Toshiro.

"5? This should be a piece of cake!" said Haruhi.

"If one of them pisses you off big time." Said Yuri.

"What was that?" asked Haruhi.

"I didn't say anything." Muttered Yuri.

Haruhi glared at the girl then went back to the problem at hand.

"Where is it?" asked Haruhi.

"In the park down the mountain." Said Toshiro.

"Okay! Let's go!" yelled Haruhi.

Everyone stared at her.

Shortly afterward they left all their Gigais in the clubroom to hold the fort.

"Are you sure it's a good idea to leave your body with out a Gikongan?" asked Hanataro.

"Yeah… Jiggles Soul Candy tends to be really grabby!" said Yachiru.

By now, everyone knew that Yachiru was the designer of the all of the Gikongan… so of course they all stared at her.

"What?" asked Yachiru.

As they headed down the hill. Ulrich watched this.

"Okay! Time to do my thing." Said Ulrich stretching.

Ulrich got out of his body and followed.

They arrived to find two female Arrancar, two male Arrancar, and one of undeterminable gender that happened to be a clown.

"So… an army of Soul Reapers to handle little old us." Said one of the female Arrancar that had pale pink hair and it's mask fragment was a unicorn like horn on her forehead.

"Let's just attack!" said the clown Arrancar with a creepy, creepy voice.

The clown Arrancar took out a unicycle, and rode to Yuri.

"Get that thing away from me!" shouted Yuri who began to run away from the Arrancar.

"Oh that's right… Yuri' afraid of clowns." Said Haruhi.

"I'll go help her!" said Yachiru running after Yuri the clown.

"I'm going with you." Said Rangiku.

"Okay I'm kidnapping the weak ones!" said a male Arrancar with black hair and a mask fragment looked like a strange headband. He began to run very fast and grabbed both Mikuru and Hanataro.

"You're not getting away!" yelled Tsuruya.

"Damn it…" muttered Toshiro.

"Looks like we're dividing us up." Said Itsuki.

"You got that right." Said the end male Arrancar with green hair who's mask fragment looked like a baseball cap for some reason.

"You finally figured it out." Said the last female Arrancar with dark blue hair and a mask fragment like a tiara.

"Okay! The remain teams are myself, Kimidori and Koizumi, the second team is Madarame, Ayasegawa and Nagato…" said Toshiro.

"Why is she with us!" yelled Ikkaku.

"Right now I'm your superior. And from reports, she's much stronger than she looks." Said Toshiro.

"So that means Haruhi and Sora are with me." Said Kyon.

"That's right." Said Toshiro.

"I get the one with the captain." said the blue haired female.

"I get the one with baldy." Said the green haired male.

"What did you say!" yelled Ikkaku.

That was when the Arrancar ran away, and Ikkaku, Yumichika and Yuki followed.

The blue haired female looked at them, and ran away.

"So that just leave me…" said the pink haired female.

Meanwhile with Yuri, she continued to run away from the evil clown.

"It's just an Arrancar… it's just an Arrancar…" Yuri told herself.

She looked at the clown Arrancar then began to running faster while crying.

"Roar! Haineko!"

"Bite and Scratch! Koneko-Chan!"

That was when the clown was surround by ash that began to cut him… then a wave of energy hit him.

Both female Lieutenants jumped in front of Yuri.

"Thank you!" cried Yuri.

"Hey Yuri… I was wondering you like One Piece… isn't there a freaky clown in One Piece?" asked Rangiku.

"First… this is neither the time nor the place… and second… I don't want to know how you know about that." Said Yuri.

Meanwhile the black haired male Arrancar stopped… he let go of Mikuru and Hanataro who was now tied up in web, just when Tsuruya.

"So looks like I'm fighting the Princess of Las Noches." Said the Arrancar.

"Let them go right now!" yelled Tsuruya.

"Oh really?" asked the Arrancar, who then shot a spider web at her, she dodged, "Who are you?" she asked.

"Who am I? Do you really want to know… the story of my life isn't one for the faint of heart…" said the Arrancar.

While the Arrancar was going though the speech. Tsuruya was cutting off the web off Mikuru and Hanataro.

"Wow you're pretty weak for a Soul Reaper." Said Tsuruya.

"I'm a member of the 4th Division." Sighed Hanataro.

"Oh... right… the medic division." Said Tsuruya.

"Aren't you listening to me!" yelled the Arrancar.

"You were just doing the Spider Man speech from that American movie." Said Tsuruya.

"No… I… I… made it up." Said the Arrancar.

The three of them stared at the Arrancar.

"Fine then… I'll show you my full power!" said the Arrancar.

The Arrancar began to glow.

Meanwhile with Ikkaku, Yuki and Yumichika… due to the way of the 11th Division. It was a one on one fight with Ikkaku and the Arrancar… which was a strait on sword fight. Yuki and Yumichika watched from the sidelines.

"So you really are an alien?" asked Yumichika.

Yuki nodded.

Meanwhile with Itsuki, Emiri and Toshiro…

The female Arrancar drew her Zanpakuto and aimed for the weakest looking member of the group, Emiri, however she enacted a barrier.

"Second Raid!" shouted Itsuki.

A fast moving ornate ball of energy hit her.

"Reign Upon the Frosted Heavens! Hyorinmaru!"

"Crap…" muttered the Arrancar, "At least it's not Bankai…"

Meanwhile with Haruhi, Kyon and Sora.

"So I got the reincarnation, a Noob and the weak son of two powerful soul reapers." Said the Arrancar, "I'm the lucky one!"

"Why you…" muttered Haruhi.

"Dance Around in the Flowery Field! Unicornio!"

The Arrancar turned in a centaur like unicorn, she also help a large western sword.

"Dance around the Flowery Field?" asked Haruhi.

"Hey!" yelled the Arrancar, "I'm the most powerful one of the five of us! And I doubt I'm going to make easy mistakes."

Meanwhile with Mikuru, Tsuruya and Hanataro, their enemy showed them their full power… which was a giant robot.

"I thought you were a poor Spider Man parody." Said Tsuruya.

"I am!" yelled the Arrancar, "Don't you know about the Spider Man show in the 70's made here!"

Indeed there was a Spider Man show made in Japan in the 70's… where he had a giant robot.

"You can never beat me!" shouted the Arrancar.

That was when the giant robot fell down on him and crushed him.

"So what should we do?" asked Mikuru.

That's when Tsuruya used a Cero on the downed giant robot causing a huge explosion.

"Next time they send a Spider Man Parody… it better be a good one." Said Tsuruya.

Meanwhile with Yachiru, Rangiku and Yuri. No matter was happened, no matter what they tired to draw away the clown from Yuri. It would always come to attack her.

"What you were sent to attack her by Aizen?" asked Yachiru.

"So you caught on… yes… I was spiffily sent for this girl to pick them off one at time." Said the clown.

"That's a dirty trick!" yelled Rangiku.

"No this is!" yelled the clown.

Yuri was hiding behind the tree when the clown suddenly disappeared.

"Right here!" shouted the clown.

Yuri turned around when the clown stabbed her in the stomach. The clown smiled evilly when it took out the sword from her stomach. The young Quincy trembled as she fell to the ground.

"This is way to easy." Said the clown, he licked the blood from the sword, but that was a bad idea… that's when he froze up, "What… what's wrong with my body?"

"You licked the blood?" asked Yachiru, "Are you stupid."

"She's the daughter of Nemu Ishida… a creation of Mayuri Kurotsuchi… her blood is poisonous." Said Rangiku.

He began to sweat, "Why didn't Lord Aizen tell me?" he thought.

That was when both Rangiku and Yachiru used their Shikai attacks to finish it off.

"We have to get Hana-Chan or Haruharu to heal her." Said Yachiru picking up her room mate.

"I know." Said Rangiku.

Meanwhile back with Team Haruhi. The unicorn centaur began to use her sword, to send out rainbow colored wave of energy.

"Lily! Baigon! Hinagiku! Saten Kesshun! I reject!"

Haruhi shield blocked it.

Sora unsheathed his Zanpakuto.

"Cross the Starlight River! Tanabata!"

The sword began to glow gold.

"Defend!" he shouted.

The sword created a shield very similar to Haruhi's.

"That's right… I heard that you have almost the same power as your spiritual sister." Said the Unicorn Arrancar, "Looks like I have to up the anti!"

That was when she shot her rainbow colored Cero at all three of them.

Meanwhile with Ikkaku's group, Ikkaku finished off his opponent.

"That guy was weak." Muttered Ikkaku.

"That match wasn't beautiful at all." Mumbled Yumichika.

Ikkaku noticed that Yuki was silently reading a book.

"Where did she get that from?" asked Ikkaku.

"I'm… not quite sure." Said Yumichika.

Meanwhile with Team Itsuki… the Arrancar was breathing heavily. Parts of her were frozen over and she had man burns and brushes.

"I won't lose!" shouted the Arrancar.

That was when she collapsed and began to designate.

"That certainly was easy." Said Itsuki.

"I have theory." Said Toshiro, "I think Aizen knew about our plans and sent out weak Arrancar after us so that we would leave it up to you."

"That makes sense." Said Itsuki, "Our earlier opponent were much stronger than this."

"I have an idea." Said Emiri.

"What is it?" asked Toshiro.

Emiri smiled.

Meanwhile with Team Haruhi. All three of them were on the ground, and struggled to get up. The Unicorn Arrancar placed her sword on Haruhi's neck.

"I'm much stronger than the others." Sid the unicorn Arrancar.

"You're not Espada level though… that for sure!" said a voice.

"Ulrich…" muttered Kyon.

"I'm your side… I've always been. I've been emotionally testing you." Said Ulrich.

Ulrich grabbed the arm of the unicorn Arrancar and made her let go of the sword.

"I have more on my side." Said the unicorn Arrancar.

That was when Ulrich placed his finger on her chest then let loose his cero, putting a hole in her chest. She fell to the ground and turned to ash.

"That was oddly easy." Said Ulrich with a big smile, "Even for a Arrancar."

Haruhi looked up at him.

"Are you really on our side?" asked Haruhi.

"Of course he is." Said a voice.

IT was Kisuke, "He's been on your side the whole time. And I knew all along."

Haruhi, Kyon and Sora all stared at him.

"This is why you're not my god father." Said Kyon.

"Did you really have to bring that up?" asked Kisuke.

"Haruhi!" shouted Rangiku.

They turned to see Team Yachiru running towards them.

"What happened to Yuri?" asked Haruhi.

"The crazy clown stabbed her!" shouted Yachiru.

Haruhi could tell she was the one that needed a medic first.

That was when the others arrived and waited for Yuri to be completely healed until they could have the conversation.

"There." Said Haruhi.

Yuri began to wake up.

"I take you couldn't take out stains or rips?" asked Yuri.

Haruhi sighed, "That doesn't' matter." She muttered.

"So you are on our side?" asked Itsuki.

"100 percent, definitely on your side." Said Ulrich, "I'm the subject of the effects of remember of a reincarnation after several years, the perfect meld of a heartless Arrancar and a loving and loveable class clown."

"You're a class clown?" asked Kyon.

"Well… I really couldn't do anything for the last few years… but yes… I'm a bit of a class clown." Said Ulrich, "In the weeks before summer vacation I will come out of my shell and become the role I was meant to be."

"Uh-huh…" said Kyon nodding.

"I guess I'll be joining the back up brigade… "said Ulrich, "As the only guy…"

Toshiro cleared his throat.

"Right now I think Aizen is aware of our plans to come here. However I have determined that for the time being we should not be stationed here." Said Toshiro, "If we are need Ichigo and Rukia can send out alerts to the Soul Society."

Haruhi sighed and looked at Sora.

"I wanted to spend more time with him though…" she thought.

"That's a good idea." Said Tsuruya.

"Also Miss Kimidori came up with an idea" said Toshiro.

"I think during the last two weeks of Summer Vacation we should go to the Soul Society and train." Said Emiri, "Both sets of the Brigade."

Both Kyon and Yuri groaned.

"Oh come on you guys it could be worse." Said Ulrich.

"How so…" said Kyon.

"We could be in an endless loop of the last two weeks of summer. Spending hundreds of years trapped an infinite loop…" said Ulrich.

"I'd prefer going though that than going to the Soul Society." Thought Kyon.

Everyone stared at Kyon.

"You're going and that's final." Said Haruhi.

"You have stop doing that." Said Rangiku.

"Oaky! Now with Ulrich on our side! We'll head to the Soul Society in a few weeks." Said Haruhi.

Everyone nodded in agreement other than Yuri and Kyon.

"Oh by the way…" said Kisuke, "I think you should get your bodies and gigai… I have the oddest feeling that Rangiku's is doing weird things to Ms. Tsuruya's…" said Kisuke.

There was an awkward silence.

The next day before class, Kyon noticed Haruhi seemed depressed.

"Missing Sora already?" asked Kyon.

"Yeah…" said Haruhi, "I wanted to spend more time with him. See what he's been up to since it happened."

"Don't worry… you'll be able to talk him when we go to the Soul Society." Said Kyon.

"That reminds… me" said Haruhi, "Why don't you want to go?"

"Because most of the Soul Reapers treat me like I'm someone special or a spoiled brat." Said Kyon, "All because of my heritage."

"That makes sense I guess…" said Haruhi looking out the window.

"Hey Kyon!" said Ulrich approaching his desk.

"You're calling me that?" he asked.

"I thought it would be better now that we're friends." Said Ulrich.

"Okay…" said Kyon.

"I need to talk to you… in private." Said Ulrich.

"Okay." Said Kyon.

Both of them went into the hallway.

"So what did you want to talk about?" asked Kyon.

"Ever since Jr. High… it's been my job protecting Haruhi… and now it's your job. "said Ulrich.

"Yeah… what about it." Said Kyon.

Ulrich removed himself from his body and unsheathed his Zanpakuto, he pointed it was Kyon.

"Kaien Kurosaki… should you ever fail in protect Haruhi to the extent she dies and you could have prevented it… I will kill you." Said Ulrich, "You understand?"

Kyon knew he was being serious.

"I understand." He said.

"Good…" said Ulrich sheathing his sword and going back into his body, "Also can I eat lunch with you and your friends! I need to "warm up to people" before I take my title."

Kyon blinked… "Okay…" he said.

"Good…" said Kyon.

"All right here I come world!" yelled Ulrich pointing to seemingly nowhere.

"So that's what he meant by a perfect meld of heartless Arrancar and loving yet loveable class clown." Thought Kyon.

And so, while the team of Soul Reapers choose not to stay, Ulrich joined the back up brigade and plans were set for a trip to the Soul Society. But ho knew what else would happen in the future.

Next Time: With Exams going on and summer coming up, the S.O.S. can relax when Hollows and Arrancar aren't involved... right? Wrong! Due to Haruhi an evil entity has kidnapped the Computer Club President! Will they be able to save him? Find out next time!
